Hey guys, been away from TDH for a while, and I just thought that I'd share a few pics of my Boba. I'm currently tweaking sizes, working on corrections, and making the switch to SE, so expect a v2 sometime soon.

All of the paint was done by me, except for the chest armor, which already had some fantastic paint on it (by evanfett). Here's the pictured parts run-down.

I have to say brother, this is an absolutely EXCELLENT costume. The part that honestly stands out the most to me is how form fitting everything is; the flightsuit fits you PERFECTLY, as does the flak vest. Absolutely stellar.

Thanks... Its on the shelf right now, though. I lost 46 pounds since those pics were taken. Luckily for me, guys get fat under the ribs, so the vest is still a perfect fit. The suit was snug then too, its actually a better fit now. The ammo belt/divers belt are still good, but I need to do up a new girth belt and make some adjustments to the cod.

Also, I need to add velcro to the spats, you can see a bit of a flap there. Gonna velcro my largest shin tool down to the leg as well. It kinda flops around and hangs out.

I should have v2 pics up in Jan. Gotta get a new blaster/helmet (sold the MR), and do the rest of the SE tweaks. After that, I think it'll be good to go again (for a while).

I think i took some of those Pics, didn't I...Thanks for making sure my son was in one that you posted. Of course the suit looks great. Glad to see you back on the boards..congrats on the weight loss and best of luck with the new suit!! See you again soon!!

ds2k2, it's been a while man! that's a mighty fine looking rotj, and it makes me a little sad that you're going SE. please reconsider! pure rotj's are rare like hens teeth.

But... but... I miss my yellow stripes...
